Candy Corn Hat and Booties

 

Materials:

  1. Vanna's Choice Yarn: Mustard ball
  2. Vanna's Choice Yarn: Terracotta ball
  3. Vanna's Choice Yarn: White ball
  4. Lion Brand Knitting Needles- Size 8 [5 mm]  
  5. Lion Brand Double-Pointed Needles - Size 9 
  6. Lion Brand Split Ring Stitch Markers 
  7. Lion Brand Large-Eye Blunt Needles (Set of 6)

 

Gauge:

16 sts = about 4 in. (10 cm) with larger needles in St st worked in the rnd (k every rnd).

When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. The needle or hook size called for in the pattern is based on what the designer used, but it is not unusual for gauge to vary from person to person. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make your swatch, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.


Making a Gauge Swatch:

Stitch Explanation:
M1 (make 1) An increase worked by lifting the horizontal thread lying between needles and placing it onto left needle. Knit this new stitch through the back loop - 1 st increased.

 

Pattern Stitch:
K2, p2 Rib worked in the rnd (multiple of 4 sts)
Row 1: *K2, p2; rep from * to end of rnd.
Rep Row 1 for K2, p2 Rib worked in the rnd.

 

Notes:
1. Hat is worked in the round on double pointed needles.
2. When knitting in the round on double pointed needles (dpns), your sts need to be divided fairly evenly onto the needles. If you are working with a set of 5 dpn, your sts should be divided among 4 needles. The total number of sts will not always be evenly divisible by the number of dpns that you are using - this is not a problem! Simply divide your sts as evenly as possible, you will still create a symmetrical 'tube' of knitting.
3. Booties are worked in rows on straight needles. The cast-on edge, when folded in half, forms the center of the sole of the Bootie.

 

Instructions:

Hat

  1. With double pointed needles and A, cast on 60 sts. Divide sts onto 4 needles - 15 sts on each needle. Place marker for beg of rnd. Join by working the first st on the left hand needle with the working yarn from the right hand needle and being careful not to twist sts.
